Seems a good reduction for a stylish kettle though I appreciate from other threads there are some Breville haters around. For those that want a Breville Kettle this looks like a good price. In stock in stores around N.Yorkshire-try your local store online for stock.

Reserve online and collect in store to avoid £3.99 delivery charge though if you want it delivered the voucher attached will save you £1. Quidco pays 3.5% for deliveries and 3% for reserve and collects.

I wonder if this has the same 'keep warm' function my Breville 'lightning' kettle has, doesn't state this on the Currys website so my guess is not? I have been happy with mine as it looks great and boils very quickly. BUT unfortunately the spring on the lid broke recently when I went to refill it. I have to say though I open the lid a lot, at least 10 times a day and I've had it for at least a year. I would be tempted to go for this one as it is a good price, but I'd want the 'keep warm' function. I have to say I prefer the look of my older one, much sleeker.

Isnt a keep warm function not very energy efficient?

I thought you would be keeping a low profile after your unprofessional , child-like , out-of-control behaviour you displayed during the match at Old Trafford yesterday !!

No disrespect but I sincerely hope the FA step in and increase the ban to at least 5 games , players that display that kind of attitude towards officials are a disgrace, as I am sure you will agree.

Apologies for changing the topic in this thread peeps , Nice Kettle

I got one of their rapid boil, illuminating kettles with the keep warm function and within 4 weeks it had stopped illuminating and the keep warm function had died too. I do have other Breville appliances that work fine.

Not questioning that this is a good deal, just hope you have more luck than I've had.

No the ]Argos one is shiny stainless steel, not brushed stainless steel. Personal preference really but I just got rid of my shiny stainless steel kettle (different brand) due to it being a nightmare to keep clean, especially fingerprints.

Thats because its gone out of stock for home delivery since I posted the deal...must have been popular. Still available for collection.

Bought one of these the other week from Instore for £22.49. Agree about the metallic taste, is there anyway of getting rid of this?

The other thing to note is DO NOT de-scale it with Oust or any other chemical as it breaks down the seal around the window. My previous kettle started to leak after I used Oust. The best thing is to use White Wine Vinegar.

25th Mar 2008

I've reserved this as its a nicer looking kettle than the one i've got, but after reading about funny tasting water i don't think i'll bother.
